Garmin Mobile for BlackBerry Introduces a Lifetime of Navigation

Garmin announced today a one-time-purchase plan for Garmin Mobile for BlackBerry in North America with $99.99 giving customers who own BlackBerry devices unlimited use of Garmin Mobile’s turn-by-turn, voice prompted directions for the life of their specific BlackBerry and unlimited access to Garmin Mobile’s dynamic content such as traffic, weather conditions and forecasts, fuel prices and more.

The real-time traffic service identifies accidents, road construction, or other incidents affecting traffic, and routes users around the congestion. The fuel feature displays helpful fuel information such as the filling station’s name, fuel price, type of fuel, and distance to the station. Real-time weather information lets users see weather conditions and forecasts at their current location or anywhere in North America.

Garmin Mobile for BlackBerry users can navigate to addresses in North America, or search millions of points of interest (POI’s) - places like hotels, restaurants, shopping, and tourist attractions. Map data is provided by NAVTEQ - a world leader in premium-quality mapping.

The one-time purchase plan for Garmin Mobile for BlackBerry is not transferable between BlackBerry devices.
